[Article] Kim Hyun Joong's "THE PRETTY BOY"



“The time when men have a simple skin routine is long gone,” said Korean “telenovela” and K-pop superstar Kim Hyun Joong, who was in town to represent The Face Shop.

On TV and in real life, Hyun Joong can make girls follow him around like besotted puppies. A simple smile thrown in their direction can induce sighs, giggles, and shrieks.

The Face Shop Asia Tour press conference last week in Palm Grove, Rockwell Club was like a scene from the Korean drama he stars in. The event was mostly attended by girls who looked confident in their high heels and smart dresses, all vying for a bit of his attention.

He was quick to answer when asked what kind of a woman he likes.

“A woman’s worth is not based on her looks. I look at her personality, and I want someone warm and funny who would keep me entertained,” he said in Korean when somebody asked what he likes in a girl.

Much was lost in translation. He would seem to answer questions longer, but his interpreter would only give a one-sentence translation in English. Yet, despite the language barrier, he came across as candid and witty.
Kim Hyun Joong started out as the leader of the boy group SS50, but he went mainstream (at least on our shores) when he played Yoon Ji Hoo in “Boys Over Flowers.” He played another high school heartthrob in “Playful Kiss.” Made to choose between singing and acting, he gave a sassy reply.

“It would be tough. It would be like choosing between your mom and dad,” he said. He earned applause for that, not for the words he spoke, but how he said it. His tone remained even, but his expression made it seem like it was the most incredulous question he had ever heard.

Better than being ugly

Hyun Joong said that he doesn’t mind being called pretty. He said it was better than being called ugly!
“I don’t mind recommending Face Shop products to all men, because the time when men have a simple skin routine is long gone,” he said.

He twiddled his thumbs at the start of the one-on-one interview with Inquirer. He looked this writer in the eye whenever he spoke, and never broke the contact. His skin looked smooth, but the lines of his eyebags were obvious up close.

He’s the first one to admit that he’s a workaholic and that he likes to be active. Relaxing, for him, is playing soccer or any other sports, and not lazing around. He said that he still likes to do his own grocery. He doesn’t mind the mob of girls that follows him around.

He didn’t even break a sweat in his coat despite the hot room temperature. For the nth time, he sported a new hairstyle.“I can’t keep track of all the hair products I use on my head,” he said. “I dye my hair a lot so I need to use a lot of treatment products.”

He loves Korean food, but the first thing he does when he gets to a new country is try out the local cuisine. He said, however, that the only thing he had tried in the Philippines was a variation of fried rice.“I bring my iPad with me when I go on a business trip,” he said. Then, with a deadpan expression, he added, “On a leisure trip, I bring money.” The cheeky answer made this writer and his posse laugh. He looked around smiling, and in all seriousness, added, “But it’s true.”

His looks make him stand out in any group, but it’s his wit that charms everyone he meets.

[News] Kim Hyun Joong Stole the Limelight of the 4 Heavenly Queens at Shenzhen Concert


Kim Hyun Joong totally rocked the Springs Cocoon Shenzhen Bay Stadium yesterday night in the "Very Perfect" 2011 Shenzhen Concert. The main features of the programme were supposed to be the 4 heavy-weights female artistes of the Chinese music industry...but...
Kim Hyun Joong proved he was the KING of the night.

Someone remarked that Chinese Sina Weibo was also in a frenzy yesterday, with many non-fans getting a speed-up lesson on who this mysterious blondie is. She said:
One of the hottest phrase being tweeted was: 'Who is Kim Hyun Joong?' (金贤重是谁). Because he turned the concert of various stars into a personal concert; the stadium's 50,000 people were all HOLD (read: captivated) by him. At the venue, his fans were the loudest, the brightest and the most supportive. When Kim Hyun Joong came on stage, many people wondered why the scene suddenly became so high. This is because he is Kim Hyun Joong."


For e.g., a non-fan, @夏沫-Sabrina, tweeted: "The legendary Korean flower boy...The whole stadium is heated to a boiling point because of him. The 90's girl beside me could actually fall asleep when Mother Kwan (Shirley Kwan) was singing. (But) just as Kim Hyun Joong appeared, she came alive and kept shouting Oppa, Oppa. At that moment, the 90s kids had all gone crazy. I'm beginning to feel I'm old now."


So yes, King Hyun Joong stole the thunder from all the other artistes that night and even the media remarked on it...Check out the translated news below.

[Article] Kim Hyun Joong’s Philippine Adventure

my Henecians Philippines famiLy.... ^_^






“Mahal kita, Philippines! Mabuhay Philippines! See you again, soon!” And with that, Korean Superstar Kim Hyun Joong concluded his very successful visit to the country.

Kim Hyun Joong was in Manila for only about 48 hours, from August 25 to 27, to promote his “Breakdown Album,” which is being distributed locally by PolyEast Records, and to participate in a series of events for The Face Shop, the beauty shop chain that he endorses.

Although he only stayed for two days, the members of his official fan club, Henecia Philippines, got busy preparing almost a month before his arrival. I was a witness to how a group of dedicated fan-girls devoted their time, money, and effort in support of this Hallyu star with finely chiseled features and an eccentric and fun personality, never mind that he hardly speaks English.

According to Nadia Gaurano, president of the fan club, they became ecstatic upon hearing the news that he would be including the country in his Asia Tour. “As soon as we learned that he was coming, we got down to business. Since this is his first official visit as a solo artist, we wanted to make sure that everything would go well and that he would be happy with the results,” she said.

The Fan Club members, most of whom are professionals and students, listed the tasks at hand and assigned individuals and teams responsible for designing and printing Henecia Philippines T-shirts, coordinating with members, buying gifts for Hyun Joong and his staff at Keyeast, his management company, and renting a double-decker bus to transport fans to and from the different venues of his activities, among many others.


Auction


Two of the members, Lyn Esguerra and Grace Aldeguer, worked closely with The Face Shop to organize the auction of Hyun Joong’s sports shorts, proceeds of which went to the Abiertas House of Friendship, a non-profit organization that supports unwed mothers. Both Kim Hyun Joong and Henecia Philippines have supported the organization in the past. The two also helped organize the autograph-signing session at the Trinoma Activity Center.

Asked why she did it despite the hard work and sleepless nights, Aldeguer said it was the most she could do for the guy who has entertained her, and has indirectly, introduced her to a group of new friends who have since become like family to her. She also considered it an opportunity to be a part of an undertaking to help the underprivileged.

Kathy Delera, owner of Kathy’s Bench (kathysbench.blogspot.com), a blog site dedicated to the Korean actor and singer, got busy posting articles to promote the visit. She and a few others used their blogs, Facebook, Twitter, and almost all kinds of social media networks to let everyone know of Hyun Joong’s visit.

As if all these activities weren’t crazy enough, the group got an email from the production staff of “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho,” asking if they can cover their activities. They said they learned about Henecia Philippines after calling the Keyeast office in Korea. So, Kathy, together with twins Lyd and Liz Pedernal, ended up being interviewed on TV about their fascination for this man whose popularity as a solo artist skyrocketed after appearing as Jihoo in the hit series “Boys Over Flowers.”


Arrival day

On the day of Hyun Joong’s arrival, a big group of Henecians went to the airport as early as 9 am to welcome him. They were all dressed in white Fan Club shirts, and held big welcome banners and white and silver balloons. They also prepared a bouquet of flowers for him.

As with most airport arrival scenes, the scene was very fleeting, and before they knew it he was already being whisked away to his hotel. But a glimpse of the smiling superstar was enough to keep everyone’s energy up the whole day.

Next stop for Kathy and her small group was the PolyEast Press Conference at the Edsa Shangri-La hotel. He was at the press conference for less than 15 minutes, but it was enough to mesmerize all the fan girls and fan boys in the audience. Yes, he was flawlessly handsome, but what endeared him to both fans and nonfans the most was his attentiveness. One look and you could tell the guy was no diva.

Meanwhile, the rest of the group proceeded to the Trinoma Activity Center for the High-Five Touch Event. The Japanese and Koreans have been holding events like this for stars, with gazillions of fans. Fans are given the opportunity to give their idols hi-fives, a less taxing and time-consuming activity than signing autographs.



Numbing the eardrums

The events on the 27th started with the Fan Club officers serving as marshals when Hyun Joong visited the Mall of Asia branch of The Face Shop. It was a short 10-minute visit, but the screams of the fans upon seeing him up close were enough to numb one’s eardrums.

No doubt everyone went there to see Kim Hyun Joong. But the screams did not start only upon his arrival. They started as soon as his bodyguard arrived to check the venue. Few can refute that Mr. Jeong is the hottest bodyguard from the land of Kimchi. He stands about 6’3”, and his skin doesn’t have visible pores. He makes you wonder whether, just like his boss, he uses BB Cream too before he steps out in public. Hyun Joong’s fans have been photographing him and mentioning him in their fan accounts. He even has his own FB fan page!

KHJ spent the rest of the afternoon at the Face Shop Press Conference at Rockwell. During the event, proceeds of the auction amounting to P100,000 was handed over to Abiertas. The winning bidder was Patria Ragasa, a 74-year-old avid fan of Hyun Joong. Ben Chan, whose company owns the local franchise of The Face Shop, was so moved and inspired by Hyun Joong’s generosity that he decided to donate another P500,000 to the organization.

This made Grace and Lyn cry. Finally, all their efforts were rewarded by something concrete. The appreciation and gratitude extended by The Face Shop and Keyeast was just a big bonus. After the media event, he proceeded to the autograph signing event at the Trinoma. His fans were surprisingly well-behaved, while Hyun Joong was visibly in a good mood.

At the end of the second day, the fan club members were exhausted but happy. And despite all the hardships, they are already looking forward to Kim Hyun Joong’s much-anticipated concert tour starting in December. Hopefully, he’ll be back to do a concert here early next year.



so proud of you guys... and am proud to say " I AM CERTIFIED HENECIANS PH!"
